This is Dweezil’s second full length album released in ’88. His first single released in ’82 was produced by Eddie Van Halen. I guess it was inevitable that with all of the music around him that he would be a musician. Compared to his dad, this is quite a normal album with verse, chorus, and four four beats with quite an 80’s pop vibe. Frank does make an appearance by producing and writing the title track. His vocal style reminds me of Nick Lowe and Dave Edmonds, and with the guitar buddies he has it was inevitable he would be a bit of a shredder.
The title track is one of my favourite tracks as there is lots of guitar and it’s quite a rocking track – compared to his dad’s version. Comfort of Strangers is a cool track too as I love the chord progressions, key changes, and there is a really nice solo. Bang Your Groove Thang has a great sleazy groove and riff. Your Money Or Your Life is as good as any LA glam band of the time. This album holds up really well. I haven’t played it in a while and was surprised how good it is.
8.5/10 from The Grooveman.
